Valdes Baptism

I was honored when the proud Momma of her first girl after 4 boys called to see if I could photograph her little princess in her baptism gown…and also thrilled that I got to photograph the baptism as well! Since photographing this little doll back in December, she has grown so much!

The Sunday after visiting the family at their home, I joined them at the beautiful church in the Gables fro the baptism! It was more of a challenge because of where I was told I could “legally” shoot from…but I still think I got some great shots…and shhhhh! I cheated a little and moved from my designated spot!

Thank you Valdes Family for asking me to be a part of such a special and blessed event!

Look Who’s 15 – Martinez Sneak Peek

Babies are unpredictable, but teenagers can be even more of a challenge! But this beautiful young lady was a complete delight! It didn’t take her long at all to warm up to me, and she gave me the most natural and gorgeous smiles. And to top it off, she was up for my kooky ideas and we had a BLAST!

I am telling you…the time I spent with this amazing girl flew by! There were so many great shots…this is truly just a few…I had such a hard time choosing! Thanks for a great afternoon!

Baby “N” Sneak Peek – 9 Days New

Babies are unpredictable…you never know if they will sleep the entire time or if they will fidget, be cranky…and generally uncooperative. For babies, you always leave the time frame wide open. Baby “N” tested me…but only for the first hour…after that, he was a little prince. And poor Mom, she was so worried that first hour. But, I never leave until I get the shot. And the last 2 hours, Baby “N” gave me lots of shots! What a pleasure!!!

Wide awake the entire first hour…and this was the best shot I got in 45 minutes! So we went outside and did some family photos before Dad had to run out to work.
